Join Scott and Steve as they party like it's 1999 and review "Breakaway" the first episode of an oft-forgotten campy piece of 70s science fiction: Space: 1999! From its strangely placed funky theme song, to its bland, impractical uniforms, they talk about it all! Listen as they detail the adventure of the newly appointed Moonbase Alpha commander, John Koenig and Dr. Helena Russell (played by a disgruntled Martin Landau and his, at the time, wife, Barbara Bain), as they attempt to solve the mystery of the cleverly named "Meta-probe astronaut virus infection" (which also might be radiation or magnetism) and...oh yeah, while they are working on the case, THE ENTIRE MOON breaks away from Earth's orbit! They'll also discuss the show's rocky start, from personal problems among the cast and crew to technical issues in the filming and production, and how this entire series was really intended to be another season of the previously failed sci-fi series "UFO". So zip up your sleeve, grab a cup of introspective tea, and laugh at the future of 1999 with us!

Join Lily, Shawn, and Scott as they discuss the the first episode of the hit sci-fi British-American coproduced drama: Humans! Listen as they compare the cut of the episode that aired on AMC in the U.S. with the Channel 4 U.K. edit, discuss the practicalities of "synth" ownership, review Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics and their application on the show, and get a review of the original Swedish version, Äkta Människor, from Vine superstar Daniel Ojanlatva. So, touch your chin, boot up, listen to the show while you recharge and enjoy some apricots. (We know they're your favorite.)
A big thank you to Daniel in Sweden for watching and reviewing Äkta Människor for us!
